The Kills

The Kills are an alternative rock duo formed in 2000 by American singer Alison Mosshart and British guitarist Jamie Hince. The two artists first met when Mosshart was touring with her band and happened to stay at the same hotel as Hince. Their collaboration began when they started exchanging records and musical ideas through the mail. In their music, they combine the influences of rock, blues, and garage music, creating a distinctive, raw sound. Their first album, "Keep on Your Mean Side," was released in 2003 and received a warm reception from critics. Their live performances are known for the energy and intensity they exude, cementing their reputation as one of the most exciting bands of their era.
